I understand that US authorities have now charged Private Bradley Manning with 'Aiding the Enemy', a charge that can carry the death penalty. However, prosecutors have also said that they will not actually seek the death penalty if Manning is found guilty.
What a paranoid and neurotic lot the Yanks are. They're so terrified of everything and everyone that they operate an enormous network of clandestine operations around the world, gathering up whatever information they can about supposed friends and foes alike. They squirrel all this stuff away, together with vast amounts of analysis and when they're found out they scream and stamp their feet like a naughty child who's collection of smutty pictures has been confiscated.
For heavens sake, children, grow up. The more you blow this whole affair out of proportion, the more childish and ludicrous you look.
